I've come to Archie's many times before and have experienced decent service. It's never been exemplary but not down right poor either. Tonight seems to be a different circumstance. We enter the restaurant and the manager is up front. He does not greet us. We wait for a server/hostess to come and take us to our table. She places menus on a table near the door and says nothing. I have to look at the Manager and ask if we are being seated there. He tells us we are & I ask if we can have a table away from the door. He points to a table in the back corner and begins to seat another party. We get to the table and there are no utensils. The server comes and takes our order and it something simple. Tofu Pad Thai with sticky rice. A party of five is seated after us. Their food arrives first. My food comes; still no utensils. I ask for chopsticks and the server comes and tosses them on the table. I begin to stir my food and there is chicken in my Pad Thai. The server doesn't return and my attempts to signal their attention go unanswered. My boyfriend has to get up to inform them we have meat in our vegetarian dish. Plate is taken and food is remade. Still no utensils. Food comes back. I ask for chopsticks and get them. We watch other tables get chili sauce and the server follows up to see if they need anything else. Yet no one stops by our table ever. Finally, my boyfriend gets up to ask for a box and the check.
Bad experience all the way around. I won't be back. Ever.
